build from 2004 Sep 9 Open Internationalize panel for some Java file and try to add new bundle file. There is a tree explorer with quite strange content. Since we have package view for our Java project it is quite unexpected to show folders here and the meaning of nodes 'Source Packages' is unknown to me. The do not match with folder concept.
This is a valid request, however it is too late for such changes in the UI (after feature freeze). We will consider it for some later releases. Besides, we'd need some support from Projects to implement that -- an API for choosing various files from projects. For the time being, this is the standard solution.
What do you mean by UI freeze? Now is next release. IMHO the i18 wizard has many usability problems. I didnt use i18n long time. Example: 1) Create a java project. 2) Create a java file with code: System.out.println("to chci lokalizovat"); 3) Run the I18n wizard on the package with the java file. 4) Select source file and click to the Next button. 5) Now is show table with two column : The first column is for java file (selected in previous panel) The second column is for the resource file. It is empty. I can browse the resource file using the Select resource button. If in my project is not resource file I cannot continue with the wizard. IMHO there is missing create resource file button.
The dialog is not modal. You can create the bundle in the project with File/New File.../Other/Properties File I agree that the UI of I18n is not very good, we will have to redesign it soon.
